The Mercedes-Benz 770, also known as the Großer Mercedes (German for "Large Mercedes"), was a large luxury car built by Mercedes-Benz from 1930 until 1944. The second model (W150) is best known from its use by high-ranking officials of Nazi Germany and their allies before and during World War II, including Adolf Hitler, Hermann Göring, Heinrich Himmler, Reinhard Heydrich, Ion Antonescu, Gustaf Mannerheim, and Benito Mussolini, many of which were captured in archival footage.
